a genocide supporter will win

i called biden winning comfortably a year ago, no point in backing down now.

This race is the most "who fucking knows" since I've followed US elections.

Some things of I think are of note

• AZ and NV having abortion ballot measures should heavily lean dem (someone else here already mentioned this)
• NC's governor ticket will probably drag Republicans down. Mark Robinson was exposed as a serial gooner (pornshop debt) who is a black Nazi that wants slavery to return (this is not a joke). He strikes me as a worse Herschel Walker/Dr Oz type candidate and I think dems pickup NC because of it. The broader Republican party is trying to run away from him because he's seen as that toxic
• GA will have the most brazenly corrupt election this side of the century, and that's saying a lot since their incumbent governor probably stole his own first election already. Their election board will send Trump electors no matter what (unless there is somehow a massive electoral college win for Kamala which I don't see happening)
• MI goes for Trump on the Stein 3rd party vote and liberals transition from their current state (going mask off) to gleeful celebration of, like, domestic socdem repression
• PA I genuinely have no clue. No confidence whatsoever in a call either way
• Every other state I think is locked in (including WI for dems- this is possibly what I'll be most gut feeling wrong about)

Republicans take the Senate

I think a 269-269 tie is an incredibly possible situation and I think it would fall under funniest timeline theory (for those reading this results in a Trump presidency due to tiebreaker rules favoring him).

If it's too close, I expect the old "in a 6-3 Supreme Court decision..." and fucking nothing being done about it and a bunch of "resistance" liberals sounding vaguely heroic as federal employees are mass purged in favor of an unvetted flood of flunkies that can scribble "I am loyal to Trump" on a piece of paper and sign it while things burn down a little faster and SNL has a lot of skits about it.

Harris loses because of Michigan, libs blame the left like always, Biden dies slipping on a banana peel during Trump's second inauguration, Carter outlives him

Someone on here said Kamala will win the popular vote but lose the electoral college so I'm going with that. Oh an one more Trump assassination attempt this time by a white black hebrew israelite mad at Trump because he's a fake or something (truth be told idk what these guys want or believe).

Kamala wins by a landslide, both electorally and popular vote, but then, Trump and the GOP just say "no", and then a 6-3 Supreme Court decision rules Trump is the winner. The Democrats immediately fold, and then blame the left for them losing. Living in a city is then made a crime punishable by death, and the Democratic Party becomes nonviable.

Despite democratic insistence (or are they just repeating because if you hear something enough times you believe it) that the race is going to go to Kopmala, trump wins.

No funny shit, no stuffed ballot boxes. Trump just fucking wins because the US and A is just that shitty of a place to be and your neighbors really are the pieces of shit you always suspected them of being.

Joe dies and Kamala takes office, wins the popular vote but loses the electoral college.

Dems would FROTH

It will be dumb and won’t even be funny.

Whoever wins we all lose

It's HIS turn

Relevant update, Sleepy Joe is apparently finally threatening to halt arms shipments... What if the October surprise is just that Biden and Harris were willing to let a genocide go on so they could suddenly kill it to swing the election? Please tell me I'm just being cynical...

I think it’ll be very close but Kamala will win. I think she’ll barely squeak by in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Trump will barely win Georgia, she’ll win Michigan and Nevada more solidly, and Arizona will go for Trump. I think this outcome will be less of a reflection of support for Kamala and more of a loss in enthusiasm for Trump this time around. This is a group of people who have been told over and over that the vote is rigged, therefore their vote doesn’t matter, and being generally lazy, they may be looking for an excuse to just stay at home.

I say this fully expecting to be proven totally wrong in a month and therefore be completely owned, but that’s what my gut tells me now. It really could go either way.

I think Harris is a lock to win Nevada and Arizona, because those two states have abortion on the ballot and that will drive the base to vote.

Election will result in a Supreme Court giving the win to Trump.

There will be a 4th assasination attempt

The Electoral college unveils from behind a sliding metal door Candidate X, an 18 foot tall behemoth of a machine spewing smoke and depleted uranium rounds as exhaust. It lets out a mighty roar like metal gear Rex could do for some reason and starts stomping to the white house where it sits on the roof, spews a plume of fire into the air and signs bills into law.

All the news networks form a pact to not call the election so that they can run non-stop coverage for weeks on end.

Kamala loses the popular vote and the electoral college, then blames leftists and Arabs for not voting for her

Pretty safe predictions here, so I'll take a wild swing: Isn'treal shoves Iran into full-blown war ahead of schedule and elections are "delayed".

Guaido wins

trump wins the election, but since the deep state can't trust him, they actually DO rig this election to make kamala win. but only diehard MAGAs believe trump when he says that because he lied about it last time.

then another january 6th happens.

then kamala girlbosses her neoliberal presidency right in to american civil war 2.

I think Obama was the last two-term US president. I think that this country is going to last like a couple more election cycles of "well we already know that one sucks cause they've been president already so time to give their opponent a shot" and then the country will devolve into open fascist dictatorship or feudalism or just completely collapse into a hundred warlord-controlled states

I mean, I already got proven right on Dems walking back anything on trans rights, but I guess that's basically a free space.

I guess we'll get a scene like Pelosi donning African clothes, but with one of the Dems in American Indian clothes. Coincide that with one of the rare good things Nixon did for Indigenous groups being rolled back.

Please don't hand me the lathe though, I'm just following patterns.

Trump wins, gets shot and killed during his victory speech. We get President JD Vance.

Just to be contrarian and not answer the question, what do we expect the actual material differences to be depending on who's elected?

Foreign policy probably looks really bad either way.
Harris is somewhat better on LGBTQ+ issues but both presidents seem content to sit back and let individual states do whatever in that regard.
Climate change/natural disasters are probably worse under Trump given that he loves to randomly gut important government agencies.

I will personally be the deciding vote. What should I write in?

The funniest possibility: Trump wins the popular vote, loses the electoral college. I don't even know what would happen next, but it would be really, really funny.

• Kamala will attempt to galvanize her base by appealing to a matriarchal structure. Kalama's husband will publicly take a supportive role, emphasizing gender equality and position himself as an advocate for women's rights. However, a recent affair will come to light. He'll do damage recovery by talking about how behind every strong woman is a man who knows when to step aside. He will later release a memoir about the campaign.
• Kalama's campaign will derive a new slogan "Rise with Her". However, it'll be revealed that key staffers quit in protest over the strategic direction of the campaign and they join the Trump campaign, with accusations of sabotage. The campaign will lose focus towards the end, with a "Families First" tour that has poor turnout.
• In a last minute decision, Trump will call an emergency rally in DC and promises to reveal 'irrefutable proof' of election fraud. A small but unruly turnout will cause mayhem, with his voters buying fake locks of his hair. Several will be arrested for bringing large inflatable objects.
• One state will attempt to remove Trump or Harris from the ballot sparking a full blown legal circus. Both candidates benefit from the increased attention and nothing happens.
• On election night, Harris will be confident that she will win. However, she is pull aside to be told that one of her strongest states may be under legal challenge because of confusing ballot. She makes a speech about urging unity and patience.
• There will be no clear victor for either candidate. Both parties will have fundraiser efforts to do voting recounts. The inauguration will still happen since the electoral college decided already and voting never mattered anyway.

Republicans stall efforts to finish counting votes after election day enough to muddy the waters so that Trump gets a win like Bush in 2000. Kopmala gracefully concedes and every liberal's brain explodes when they try to suppress the thought of peacefully transferring power to who they were told was literally Hitler for the last 12 months

Alright, heres whats gonna happen- when the results are called in, Donald Trump will have won the electoral vote. On inauguration day, when Biden leaves office and shakes hands with Trump, he will be shot.

Immediately after, The gunman will be dealt with by the secret service. The FBI will conclude that the gunman was aiming for Trump, but missed.

The swing states all have a lot of fuckery at the local level and it will take a couple days before we know who is the true winner. SCOTUS will try to intervene but the lower courts will get ahead of them to ensure the states wrap up the counting. Harris probably wins, but the chuds will be frothing at the mouth. I'm setting the over/under for how many get shot dead by the authorities at 3.5.
